Book Bundles

As a part of our new curbside service, we also offer a new service called “Book Bundles.” After you fill out a quick form  letting us know your reading preferences and favorite authors, we’d be happy to pick out a few books for you and have them on our hold shelf for a curbside pickup or in-library checkout. Let our librarians find some fun, exciting new reads for you!
